Did you know you can add a phone number link to your website?

Hmm. What are phone links?

Glad you asked.

Say a customer is viewing your site on their smart phone, they check out your contact page and see your number. A phone link would allow them to just press the number and their phone would immediately start calling you.

You can raise a support ticket from the support dashboard (http://support.moonfruit.com/home) – just ensure to place the code on your site before you raise the support request so we can troubleshoot it for you

i just tested and this also works when inserting body text and images.
use the ‘link’ tab under editor and just enter tel:0123456789 (your number) where you would usually enter an external link.
(tested on iphone)

I’ve added this to my site in two places – in page footer and also on contact page – but it does not appear to work for me. I did wonder if it’s because it’s a mobile number in used. Or if I had to remove leading zero. Any suggestions?

same problem! I have put the code in replaced the 12345678 with our own phone number and replaced the call me with “call Homely Petz” we can see the blue “call Homely Petz” prompt on the website but when you click on it, it is showing a “clip of another part of the website.

ive got the same problem . I’ve added this to my site – but it does not appear to work for me. I did wonder if it’s because it’s a mobile number in used. Or if I had to remove leading zero. Any suggestions?

Hi everyone
Sorry for our delay in getting this sorted. We’ve now changed the tutorial because unfortunately it wasn’t working for everyone using the HTML snippet widget. You should be able to do this using a ‘Link button’ instead – the instructions above have been updated to reflect this. Let us know if you have any questions and we apologise for the delay.
Thanks,
Amita
